Just because I KNOW somebody will copy and paste

19. No, you were taking me to task for what I did not write.

I write what I write. In this case I was writing about the original story and about how amateurishly it was handled. Others are perfectly capable of writing what they want to say, and you're perfectly capable of addressing what they have written. Your expectation that I would write about what others said about the story is unrealistic. I did not choose to do that, because that was not my subject.

Don't expect me to write anything but what I actually write. Then, we'll get along just fine. If you criticize me for what I have not written, then we will not get along so well. I am not a whipping boy for what others say. I'm fairly careful about what I write, and I think others should be, too. If they are not, it is none of my affair.
